Support for Dreamscreen solo

[AndreKSB]

I have a Dreamscreen Solo that I'm trying to link to Home Assistant. I end up getting the following error message: Unknown Device type: 7. I think this is simply because DS created a new type for the Solo next to the HD and 4K versions. In the message received from the Solo one can even conclude that the HDMI-inputs are 'supported' although the Solo only has 1 input and no outputs. I went through the python code and I cannot figure what to change in the code itself to get my Solo working with your great work.

I hope this is a simple fix and you can guide me to the right lines in the python code.

I went through the python code and I cannot figure what to change in the code itself to get my Solo working with your great work.

First guess, you looked into the wrong repo. This is only the HA bridge and loads PyDreamscreen

I have no time right now. But here is the quickstart: Pydreamscreen throwing your error. Your Message contains 7 and the code doesn't handle it yet. See here https://github.com/GregoryDosh/pydreamscreen/blob/4e2c72e4d79fa8b0a4153cb6e5ea39cecc7d40cc/pydreamscreen/devices.py#L110

I'll check later.

Hi Gregory,

Thanks for the tip. I got it working in the meantime !!

I was not aware of the pydreamscreen (I’m a newbie to home assistant and docker and python, but I have some background in C++, so I managed) 😊

Attached the updated files

init.py from the custom_components/dreamscreen folder in init.zip

• Added pydreamscreen.DreamScreenSolo class/type
• Removed logger on line 249. It broke the code, don’t know why.

Pydreamscreen/__initi.py & devices.py in PYDREAMSCREEN_SOLO.zip

• Added DreamScreenSolo device (7) and class etc etc.

• I think the code is complete, I updated everywhere where there was DreamScreen4K I added similar code for DreamScreenSolo

  Thanks for your quick reply, it set me on the right track to resolve this in ~3 hours.

Hi,

I'm not Gregory :D Happy you got it. I would file a PR if you don't want to.. If @GregoryDosh doesn't want to maintain the tool i may have to, because i love it. But tahts another story.

Could you close the Issue, as its done please?

[GregoryDosh]

Sorry I've not been active with this. I've moved across country and been unable to get much coding done along with the fact that my Dreamscreen is still back in my previous house at the moment. @J3n50m4t thank you for your pull requests & help.

[AndreKSB]

Thanks J3n50m4t :)

I've "merged" your commit to both Repos.

Next time it would be nice if you create a PR.
